what is a safe place for you?
how would you describe an 'unsafe place'?
when and where do you feel isolated?
how do you control your space?

Agora Phobia (digitalis) is a interactive, mobile monument for 
‘unsafety and isolation’ of Karen Lancel een Hermen Maat.
This mobile monument is a communication space including an inflatable 
Isolation Pillar and website www.agora-phobia-digitalis.org.
Traveling in crowded city public spaces of New York, Paris, Helsinki, 
Berlin, Lancel and Maat research with this monument mental images and 
strategies for being (un)safe and isolated; connecting social 
experiences in the physical and virtual space.

Agora Phobia (digitalis) invites you in a semi-transparent, inflatable 
Isolation Pillar.
Inside the Isolation Pillar one feels safe; and at the same time, 
lacking control over the outside, one feels vulnerable. In the 
Isolation Pillar is an online computer. You are invited to chat with 
someone who lives isolated somewhere else, like with someone who has 
been living in prison, someone who lives in a cloister, someone living 
illegally in the city, a digi-persona, someone suffering from 
agoraphobia.
Your participation in the chat will be published on 
www.agora-phobia-digitalis.org; which also offers the opportunity to 
participate at home by monologue.
Come to Agora Phobia (digitalis) in CBK Amsterdam on November 2; or 
react this week on the website.
